The Theatre Arts and Motion Picture Practitioner Association of Nigerian has suspended Nollywood actor Yomi Fabiyi over his new movie ‘Oko Iyabo’, which portrays the Baba Ijesha rape Saga issues.

The movie, which aired on YouTube on July 4, 2021, featured characters with names of persons involved in the rape case, including actors Iyabo Ojo and Olarenwaju Omiyinka, also known as Baba Ijesha.

The movie sparked outrage on social media as many Nigerians called the TAMPAN association to discipline Yomi Fabiyi over the movie production.

In a new development, the association, in a statement, said Yomi Fabiyi had been suspended indefinitely for gross professional misconduct and unethical practices.

See Statement:



In reaction,  Yomi Fabiyi indirectly refuted claims of being a member of the Theatre Arts and Motion Picture Practitioner Association of Nigerian.

In a post shared on his Instagram page, said he’s originally a member of ANTP and will renew his membership there.

According to the actor, he never obtained or signed any form with TAMPAN or joined any guild adding he was made to pay a registration fee, and there was no formal procedure.

Yomi Fabiyi said the letter from TAMPAN is not valid to him as a filmmaker, and any necessary reaction will be based on the human rights violation.

He wrote:

I’m originally ANTP member, the worst case I will renew my membership there. I have never obtained or sign any form with TAMPAN or join any guild. I was made to pay for registration which I did but no form collected or formal procedure.

The letter is inappropriate, not valid for me as a filmmaker. Any reaction if necessary will be on the basis of Human Rights Violation if I so wish to see judicial redress, You don’t lose what you never had.
